       @EUCommission Try a progressive europe-wide tax. Tax land ownership. That would boost the value of the Euro so you don't get inflation when you print Euros to pay for education, training and infrastructure projects. Yes, you can pay for a giant drone-centric military designed by the Ukrainians too...Oh, you can rewrite the copyright laws that the US wrote for you so that they got all the value from IP.Also, tax IP. You should not want your own Meta or Palantir. Those things are disasters.

       @davidrevoy I used a guinea pig as a rubber duck. It was lovely to stare into his beady eyes and see little but buck-toothed contemplation of whether I had lettuce. Very helpful when trying to decide whether to use a hypercube. I didn't.

       @mwl @mhoye While trying to keep my eyebrows from physically leaving my head, I imagined little speech bubbles as I read that article:"My business was deleted by the best premium model running on the finest of agents.""Screw you, Poindexter, I don't need to know what a context window is.""Claude's not stochastic, *you're* stochastic."

       @EUCommission Agree that protecting children online is important. The way to do that is absolutely not to track all citizens in all online interactions. On the contrary, permitting profit-motivated private 3rd parties to do this incentivises precisely the kinds of surveillance capitalism driven algorithmic content delivery that is shown to demolish the mental health of all who come into contact with it, not just children.Anonymity online (making surveillance illegal) and education, protects.
